MGI ZIP series, User Manual

3.2 Rear Wheels Positions

The MGI Zip buggy is designed to allow the rear wheels to be in 
two positions. The position is determined by where the wheel is 
locked on the axle in either of the two grooves [see picture]. The 
drive position is used during the normal operation of the buggy. 
The free wheel position is used to freely push the buggy should 
you experience battery or buggy issues on the course.

i. Drive position

– Lock the wheel onto the groove closest to the 

battery base

. To do this, press the grey release button on the 

wheel hub, push the wheel on to the axle as far as possible. To 
test for drive position try rolling the wheel backwards. If you feel 
resistance then the wheel is now in drive position and ready to 
use. Repeat for both wheels.

ii. Free wheel

 – 

Lock the wheel into the groove closest to the end 

of the axle. To do this, press the grey release button on the wheel 
hub, push the wheel on to the axle and push the release button 
onto the groove. To test for free wheel position try rolling the 
wheel backwards. The wheel should spin freely with no resistance. 
Repeat for both wheels.
